Groomers

A specialized groomer, the same type used by nordic centres, is towed behind a small snowmobile . The groomer is 30 inches (76 cm) wide, ideal for creating winter trails for our non-motorized recreationalists.

Grooming is a slow process, the snowmobile runs approximately 5 kms/hr towing the groomer as it rolls and packs the trail down. Once groomed, it will take a few hours to harden before it is ready for use. Grooming will be done mostly at night when there are less trail users. This will give a better chance for the snow on the trail to set.

ROKON

In 2016, the HMBA added a Rokon to it's inventory. The Rokon will allow for easier year-round maintenance and is also a great for grooming trails when the snow isn't too deep.
